"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Okenyuri. Some of us have been teachers so we know the role teachers play in the invigilation and marking of exams. It is unfortunate that the results are already celebrated nationally and a number of people are excited by the results they got. However, failure to pay these invigilators shows lack of gratitude to the teachers through the process of marking. All of us know that teachers make a lot of sacrifice when they go for the marking of these exams. It is a national duty. Once this work is done and the results are out, it is only important and human that the teachers are paid in time. It looks like the education fraternity has a lot of problems. I keep on saying that the junior secondary school is in problems. Mr. Speaker, Sir, teachers who teach our students of the new curriculum have not been adequately prepared. Teachers in Junior Secondary Schools are not adequately prepared. The facilities are also inadequate. Therefore, the country and the Government must pay attention to the education sector. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we already know the goings-on in the university education. If you follow what is happening, universities are laying their lecturers off. What does this portend for our country? Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support that teachers who have done their work as invigilators must be paid in time because the output is already there. I thank you."
